But, that's not the only reason the 22-year-old doesn't want to make an appearance.
“Kristen is very proud of her work for On The Road, she grew up reading Kerouac novels and this is a production she always wanted to star in. If she appears at the London premiere, it will detract people from the movie itself and Kristen doesn’t want that at all," the source said.
In addition, Kristen feels uncomfortable being around her costar Tom Sturridge who is friends with Robert Pattinson.
"He’s very close to Rob and Kristen thinks it would be awkward for her to promote the movie on the red carpet alongside him," the source said.
Meanwhile, Rob is about to come out of hiding and face the press while he plugs his new project Cosmopolis. He'll first appear on The Daily Show on Monday, August 13. Later that night he'll walk the red carpet at the NYC premiere then on Wednesday August 15, Rob will be on ABC's Good Morning America.
